The luck of the fixtures are with Wrexham when you see the current form of the next 3 teams that they take on. At the members meeting the 'football director' thought the games ahead were a real challenge but having studied the form of the upcoming opponents its all there to win and Wrexham catch them out when those teams are all on one of their worst runs of form this season

Bromley first up - 4 losses and 1 draw in the last 5 games

Yeovil second up - Zero wins and 3 draws.

Eastleigh 2 losses 2 draws and just 1 win

In summery out of the last 15 games these teams have managed just ONE WIN in a combined last 15 games -

Onwards and upwards to safety !!!!!!!

How dare you come on here being optimistic !

He consistently loses against teams in and around us dragging us deeper into a relegation scrap.

He's been absolute garbage since the day he came back and needs to be given the boot as a priority.

You can't make a silk purse out of a sows ear - well not overnight.

Keates has cleared some real deadwood out - at least he's trying to change things - it was never going to be easy inheriting Hughes signings.

He loses consistently ? really ? I thought we beat 2nd place Harrogate who are winning for fun - we lost to a fast improving in form Chesterfield - it happens.

We are not going to win every game and the entertainment value is far from appealing but I'm optimistic to think we will stay up. One thing Keates will do is not sit on his arse when there is a problem - he has moved to bring players in - we might not agree with why and they might turn out duff but the recent additions of Harris, Ponticelli and Jarvis look better than what we have shipped out.

The two clubs couldn't agree a date so it's gone to the league to decide

That's unusual - secretary's would normally be able to sort - reasoning could be interesting - Torquay still in the FA Trophy is probably the issue.

The league will be keen to play it as soon as practically possible on the basis that other games in the future could also be postponed - a matter of keeping a tidy ship and clearing your decks just in case other games need rescheduling which in Torquay's case will definitely be an issue if their involvement in the Trophy continues.

.

Torquay lost to Halifax on 11th January in the FA trophy so that's not the reason

I said he loses consistently to the teams around us, Harrogate aren't around us. He has a loss rate of 69% against teams around us.

But yes he also loses consistently overall. Since he walked out on us his loss record is 51% in league football.

Forget about the past and the 'management' Its players that win matches.

The next three games offer a massive opportunity - even to the extent of three wins !!!!! Then the troubles will be all but over.

You’re right, but also wrong. Because if we give Keates the boot, the board will probably go out and hire some young up and coming Netball coach as manager, and that would be even worse (somehow?)
